Hi all,

I'm heading off to the backwaters of planet earth and will need some entertainment. I like Diablo II, but I really want to play Xevious and Xenon and all those other 'classic arcade' games from Amstrad/C64/Atari days.

I had a play around with some sort of MAME (?) program d/load and some ROM game d/loads, but never got them to work, in fact it was a nightmare of monitor resolution resets, unexplained crashes and NO success. I ran away scared. The game Roms never seemed complete either, or so it said. Eeek!

I have about 3 days to sort this out as that's how long I've got access to the 'net for any d/loads.

Anyone able to give me a 12 step plan (or less) to success?

Luv yah.
